A professional identity thief being investigated by various law enforcement agencies was arrested Friday for allegedly trying to withdraw funds from a corporate account with a fake ID.

Titus Connally, 44, of 223 Soundview Ave., was arrested at HSBC Bank, 310 Connecticut Ave., for allegedly trying to withdraw $4,900 from a bank account that belonged to a New York City man, according to police. Connally is currently under investigation in other states by various law enforcement agencies, according to police.
